These pictures of Jay prior to his terrible accident show what a zest he had for life and his spirit of excitement. Jay was a dad that refused to own a television set, and insisted on teaching his young sons about life by living it to the fullest point. He built skateboarding ramps in the back yard and taught his boys jumps and maneuvers. His athletic ability even in his mid-40's status was enviable...and then the terrible accident happened. Jay could no longer remember these events, abilities, or even his family.
